Hey Eric!! thanks for the recommendation!
We are always looking for this sort of stuff here! You know how much music and other media “junk” I have around here! I have 6 T right now in storage space and it’s still not quite enough.. anyway, I’ll go check this out. I am still quite happy with my i mac and my laptop macbook air, but could easily see the day when an i pad pro would do everything I need as long as I could do file storage and retrieval, heavy word processing, and web site management/development on the pad versus my desk top or laptop..
